Hello! I'm Jen! I've been playing the Sims for quite some time now and just decided to finally join the forums! I enjoy playing legacy families (mostly in a historical setting), as well as creating new, complex backstories for my sims. I really enjoy writing, so playing the Sims really gives me a great way to flesh out my characters, and create new stories, too!

Hello @Benna_boo

It is nice to meet you. Welcome to the forums!
It is very nice that you enjoy playing legacy families

It is very enjoyable seeing the new generations of children and watching them growing up in our games. It is great seeing the interactions between the different generations, and the differences or simlarities between siblings. It is special that you have brought your creativity in writing, into simming by creating great background story details for your sims. Your sims would be great Households to play!
Happy simming!

Hi guys, I have since figured out that by killing off the alien I had moved into my household through an engagement, the music has stopped and game play is back to normal. I'm not sure if the alien was the cause, but that is the only thing I can think of. It is also the only difference that helped.

I had created a new game (now having 2 games to load from) which didn't have an issue, and I also tried going into a different household in the game with the problem and didn't have an issue. It was something with that household. I had 2 babies delivered and multiple promotions, and a game patch that did not solve the problem. The alien was the only thing that solved it. Maybe there was a glitch with that specific alien in my game. However, if you're having this problem I suggest undoing the most recent household change if you can.

Happy Simming!

Hello @H3ath3rlynn
It is good that you found a way of fixing the issue in your game

Hey there! I’m new again. I started Simming with Sims 2 more than a decade ago and I play Sims 4 often. I’ve just never really posted to forums. Recently my simming has gone into overdrive after Hurricane Harvey. Our home was flooded and the out of control feeling of living in a damaged home is relieved a little by decorating the sims homes.

My love of home-building is very long term and Sims gives me an outlet for creativity. I used to draw my dream house in detail on grid paper when I was little and started off college going for architecture and drafting. I loved drafting but quit college when I had my first child, who is now in college herself (early college, so I have to drive her back and forth). Anyway, I have 4 kids, not including my husband, lol, and I homeschool all but the college student (I did, just not anymore).

Hello @HomeMama

It is nice to meet you. Welcome to the forums!
It is nice that you first started simming by playing Sims 2 , and are now playing Sims 4.
I am so sorry to hear that your home was flooded by Hurricane Harvey

It would be very upsetting and distressing for you. I send a hug to you

It is encouraging that you find decorating Sims homes is helping you cope with all that you have been going through.
It is special that you homeschool your children

Siimming would give you a restful and relaxing break in the midst of your busy life and day.
Happy building and simming!

HomeMama · February 2018

Thank you so much, @rosemow! Yes, it’s been very therapeutic. Glad to be here and can’t wait to do some build challenges.

Hey all! I've played Sims 1-3 with varying interest since their respective releases, but didn't really get into Sims 4 until I started watching some YouTubers play through some storylines (specifically Deligracy and Clare Siobhan) and received the Cats & Dogs expansion for Christmas. Since then, I've been playing through my first family ever. Normally I just create myself and my family/friends, build a bangin' house, and then call it good for a while. But I actually created a single Sim to play through their life and build a family, and I've been having a ball with it. (I'm not doing any kind of "legacy" challenge, just playing through the family and seeing what happens.) I'm interesting in being more social with other Simmers and wanted to join and stay more up-to-date with official announcements and see what others have been doing with their Sims. :)

Hello @DanS_Programmer

It is nice to meet you. Welcome to the forums!

It is great that you enjoy programming, and have reflected it in your user name.

Hello @storminmay

It is nice to meet you. Welcome to the forums!
It is nice that you have played each of the Sims versions. It is enjoyable watching simming YouTube videos and learning helpful tips about playing the game. It was a special Christmas gift to receive the Cats and Dogs pack

Pets are fun to have as part of our sims households!
I am glad that you are enjoying playing the sim and seeing them build their family and living their lives in your game. I hope that you will continue to enjoy playing this Sims household.
I hope that you will enjoy meeting fellow simmers on the forums threads and posting about your simming experiences .
Happy simming!

Hey simmers, I'm having a bit of trouble with my bundle pack I have purchased. I went to Argos (a shop that sells video games) and bought it there in a bundle pack with the sims 4 deluxe edition and sims 4 cats and dogs (although I already have the Sims 4 before I purchased, the shop only sold sims 4 cats and dogs in a bundle pack) and as I was installing sims 4 cats and dogs, it asked for a redeem code and so I typed it in but it said it was invalid so what can I do about it? Please help I've been up most of the night trying to get help from EA but no chat will load.

Hello @jpod2004
I am sorry that you are having this issue. Try shutting down your computer completely. Then restart the computer, go to the EA Help site, https://help.ea.com/
and see if you are able to get live chat working then.

You receive a point each time another simmer presses like or awesome or insightful on a post that you have posted. Keep posting on the different threads and sections of the forums and you will soon get the points/posts. The off topic section ( where you are now posting ) is a good place to post on other simmers ‘ threads.

Happy simming!

Heyho :smile:

I've been playing The Sims since Sims 1 came out, mostly playing legacy style games and challenges. I've always had pretty vanilla setups, very little CC and no mods. I just installed MCCC recently and a whole new world opened up to me. I've been reading SimLit online over the years but never really participated in the community. Now I've run into some technical troubles yesterday and turned to the internet for help. I was overwhelmed at how helpful and friendly people were. It made me want to participate more and share my simming with you guys :)

Hello @Aricie

It is nice to meet you. Welcome to the forums!
It is nice that you have been simming since Sims 1. You would have enjoyed playing many sims households over the time and enjoyed seeing them live their sim lives as they grew up in your game.
MCCC mod is great! It adds many special helpful features to the game!
It is great that you have joined the forums community and will share your simming experiences with fellow simmers. I hope that will enjoy meeeting and chatting with fellow simmers on the threads.
Happy simming!

Hiya! Especially @rosemow, you are active on so many threads! How do you have so much time!

I started playing The Sims 4 in 2015 and I haven't turned back since! I had no experience with the other Sims games but I am beyond impressed with the community this game has created. Recently, I went CC clean and I deleted nearly 100 items (Mainly hair and makeup) as my game was laggy and slow, it is so much better now. I recommend to everyone who is playing a glitchy game, to delete any custom content, and go fully vanilla. This is just my opinion though. Have a nice day everyone!

Hi Cait! I don't use CC either, for that very reason. I'm actually pretty happy with the vanilla game and it's always nice to see others who are, too.

Welcome!

Well hello I guess?
To be honest I'm not sure what I should say here and even if I should post anything? Since I'm not even sure for what I would use this site besides look up stuff to try in game. But I'll try to introduce myself anyway.
The name I go by is Yuki, I'm a huge geek partaking in almost all well known ways people are said to be geeks (conventions, cosplays, DnD, etc.) and I have played both the sims 3 and 4. Currently trying to get my life back together so what better than to pick the sims back up again right?
Idk what else to say so.... I hope everyone has a good night!
